Hey guys,

not sure if this is the right section if so can it please be moved. Anyway here is my situation.

A client had a previous website up with a blog that was wordpress i have re-created the entire site in another wordpress database and forgot about the posts from the previous one. The website has since been redirected to the new site i still have FTP access to the old site i just cant get into the wordpress to do an export i can only do it via the phpMyAdmin panel that i know of and this is where the problem comes in the old database is of type MyISAM and the new one is of type InnoDB and will not allow me to simply take the wp_posts and put it in the new one.

Is there a way i can convert it so i can use it in the new database?

Thanks,

by the way if you are unclear of my problem still let me know and i will try and explain it better for you.
